Death of Ciara Durkin

Ciara M. Durkin (July 6, 1977 – September 28, 2007), Corporal, United States Army, was a Specialist with the Massachusetts National Guard who died while deployed in Afghanistan. A U.S. Army investigation ruled the death a suicide but the family disputes this.〔("Army rules soldier from Mass. killed self" ), boston.com, June 25, 2008; accessed April 23, 2014.〕
Durkin, one of nine siblings, was born on the island of Eanach Mheáin, near County Galway, Ireland. Her mother, Angela (née Cloherty), is a native of the island, and her father, Tommy, was a native of Tourmakeady, County Mayo. Following her father's retirement as a teacher, the family emigrated to Boston, Massachusetts in 1986, where her father died a few months later, aged 55. She returned to Ireland to attend school, returning to the Boston area in her mid-teens. She was a 1996 graduate of Fontbonne Academy, Milton, and joined the Army National Guard in October 2005 after getting laid off from her information technology job at Fenway Health, her family told the Quincy, Massachusetts-based ''Patriot Ledger''.〔(Notice of death of Specialist Ciara Durkin ), militarytimes.com; accessed April 23, 2014.〕
Of her family, her mother, and four siblings live in Boston, while two brothers live in New York. Another sister and brother live in Eanach Mheáin, while another sister, lives in Buncrana, County Donegal. She was a lesbian〔http://www.advocate.com/news/2007/10/09/slain-lesbian-soldier-ciara-durkin-remembered〕 and both she and her brother Pierce were active members of the Boston gay community. Family members said Ciara was planning to marry her longtime girlfriend following the end of her tour of duty in Afghanistan. Her ashes were brought to Galway on Saturday, October 13, 2007, and buried with her late father in Lettermore.

Durkin died in a secure area at Bagram Air Base in Afghanistan of a single gunshot wound to the head, and the Army has confirmed that Durkin's death was "non-combat related".〔("Homicide is not ruled out in Quincy GI's death" ), ledger.southofboston.com; October 4, 2007; accessed April 23, 2014.〕
According to reports, she told her family she had uncovered information that "would upset other military officials". According to one of Durkin's sisters , "()he () was in the finance unit and she said, ''I discovered some things I don't like and I made some enemies because of it.'' Then she said, in her light-hearted way, ''If anything happens to me, you guys make sure it gets investigated.''"〔("Soldier once warned family: 'Investigate if I die'" ), rawstory.com; October 4, 2007; accessed April 23, 2014.〕 An e-mail she had sent to friends in June 2007 claimed a fellow soldier had pulled a 9mm gun on her.〔(Gay Soldier Murdered in Afghanistan?
